Looks good, as for wb depends on the body. But most are around 10 1/2-11 1/2''

Thanks I'll probably run a 1/8th body but I don't know which one I want.

first figure out what body you want then do your build based on that. it would suck to build a chassis for a 10.5" wb and then find an awesome body that has a 12.5" wb.

good start! and as he said find a body first! I learned that the hard way

Looks like a good start, I see your in manhattan, not to to far from me, should try to organize a crawl some day with some of the other New Yorkers

BTW when you post pics, photo bucket gives you 3 different codes, use the code that has the "[IMG][/IMG]" and it will hotlink the photo and show up in the post
